Rex and his best friend, Sandra, are on the hunt to solve a mystery!
Who is clattering around in the museum cafe at night, why are all the stuffed animals moved and what has happened in the gift shop; it looks as if a wild animal has been let loose in it!
As the security guard abandons his job, Rex must step into his shoes but can he survive a scary night at the museum?
Who is the mysterious Egyptian mummy roaming the museum?
Will Rex and the gang manage to sort everything out in time for the greatest-ever sleepover in the museum? (There will be hot chocolate!)
Join the big-hearted dinosaur as he navigates his way through the chaos.
Behind the humour, the drama and the excitement of this story lies a serious message. Should museums hold onto artefacts that have been removed from graves?
A madcap, fun book that would be perfect when working on projects about the Egyptians, not to mention dinosaurs too of course!
Showing the true value of friendship, this is a small book with a mighty message.
Heavily illustrated by the author, with tongue in cheek humour, ‘Rex’ is suitable for readers from 7+.
